Pressmeddelande, 15 september 2011 Voddler launches film-app for Nokia-phones Voddler, Scandinavia’s leading online film service, just launched a specially designed movie-app for Symbian platforms and Nokia-phones. Thanks to the DRM- and copy protection systems used on Nokia- devices – systems approved by the leading film studios – you can watch the latest blockbuster rentals directly in your phone, on top of all the ad-funded titles Voddler also offers. The app is free and works on Symbian smart phones that have upgraded to Symbian Anna. The app is available in Ovi Store. In the past months, Voddler has released film apps for iPhone, iPad and Android devices. Voddler now launches a specially designed app for the Symbian-platform for Nokia’s smart phones. - You should be able to watch movies when and where you like, regardless of which screen you happen to have next to you. Some mobile platforms still have business restrictions or technical limitations, but on our Nokia-app we can now offer all the films that Voddler has, both new rentals and classic ad-funded titles, says Anders Sjöman, VP Communication at Voddler. - The copy protection system in Nokia’s phones makes it possible to show the very latest movies, that otherwise only are available in DVD-stores or in web-based VOD-services. Up until now, it has not been possible to show these on mobile devices, says Christophe Joyau, Head of Services, Nokia North. At launch, the app has about 250 movies activated for mobile viewing. New titles will be added on a running basis from Voddler’s growing catalog of over 4,500 titles. Among the movies that you can see at launch are new releases like No Strings Attached, Red Riding Hood, Due Date and The Town, modern classics like the Harry Potter-series or the Matrix-series, or family titles like Chicken Little and Dinosaur. Voddler’s Symbian app does not require any specific subscription, only that the user upgrades to Symbian Anna. Symbian Anna is an upgrade to the Symbian operating system, which comes with an improved user experience, including a new user interface, improved web browser, increases security and an upgrade of Nokia Maps. Movies in the Voddler app are shown both over mobile networks and WiFi. The app is available in Ovi Store.
